Dear Sir,
Sub.: Disclosure of information provided to selected bidders
In connection with the bid process followed by Satyam Computer Services Limited (the “Company”) to select a strategic investor, the Company had provided to selected bidders, including Venturbay Consultants Private Limited (the “Acquirer”) and Tech Mahindra Limited (the “Person Acting in Concert” or “PAC”), access to certain non-public information to facilitate price discovery as the publicly available information about the Company was tainted.
In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Board of India’s (the “SEBI”) in-principle approval dated March 3, 2009, such information was provided to selected bidders subject to execution of: (i) a non-disclosure and non-solicitation agreement which, among other things, required bidders to keep confidential all information received from the Company during the bid process and to not solicit employees or clients of the Company based on such information, and (ii) a standstill agreement which, among other things, required bidders to not deal in the securities of the Company until six (6) months from the date of the public announcement of the public offer (the “Public Offer”) under the SEBI’s (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 1997 (the “Takeover Regulations”).
We understand that certain antifraud rules and regulations of the United States’ Securities and Exchange Commission apply in connection with the Public Offer, including Section 14(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 as well as Rule 10b-5 promulgated under that act. In general, it is unlawful for any person to make any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or to engage in any fraudulent, deceptive, or manipulative acts or practices, in connection with any tender offer. In the context of selected bidders, including the Acquirer and the PAC, having been provided information on the Company, it is possible that such information may be deemed to be material, in which case it may be unlawful for the Acquirer and PAC to undertake the Public Offer without first publicly disclosing this information. It is for this reason, in abundance of caution and in the interest of having the fullest compliance with laws that the Acquirer and the PAC intend to disclose certain information, as provided to selected bidders, including the Acquirer and the PAC (“Information”) in their letter of offer.
As a matter of good corporate governance and in the interest of full disclosure, the Company also deems it fit to disclose the Information publicly at this time. Accordingly, the Information is being enclosed herewith and may also be accessed on the Company’s website at http://www.satyam.com/investors/q30809.asp.
The Information was not prepared with a view toward public disclosure or compliance with the Company’s listing agreement with stock exchanges, the published guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Board of India or the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. This information is not necessarily in

 


 

compliance with either Indian generally accepted accounting principles or United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The Information has been prepared by the Company with data collected using the Company’s internal management information systems (“Internal MIS”), which may not be adequate and books of accounts, making certain management estimations, assumptions and approximations. Given (i) the pendency of the restatement of the Company’s financial statements, and (ii) the fact that the Company’s present board of directors and audit committee are still reviewing the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not be effective. Further, the Company may not have access to all books of accounts needed to prepare financial information. Hence, the estimations, assumptions and approximations used by the Company’s management are their best efforts. These factors should be viewed in light of Price Waterhouse’s statement to the Company on January 13, 2009 and the resignation letter of B. Ramalinga Raju, the former Chairman of the board of directors of Company, Price Waterhouse’s audit reports and opinions in relation to Company’s financial statements from the quarter ended June 30, 2000 until the quarter ended September 30, 2008 should no longer be relied upon. Therefore, there are no audit reports for or reviews of the Company’s annual or quarterly financial statements from the quarter ended June 30, 2000 to date.
No assurance can be given as to the date when audit reports for restated financial statements will be available. Further, the Information has not been audited, reviewed or examined by an independent auditor or otherwise verified. There can be no assurance that the Information is accurate. Actual (final and/or audited) results of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be materially different from the Information.
None of the Company, its affiliates, advisors or representatives are making any representations or warranties, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Information, or as to the reasonableness of any assumptions on which such Information may be based, and neither the Company, its affiliates, advisors or representatives will have any liability with respect to any use or reliance upon any of such Information. In addition, none of the Company, its affiliates, advisors or representatives undertakes any obligation to update or otherwise reconcile or revise this Information to reflect circumstances after the date this Information was generated or provided to selected bidders or to reflect the occurrence of future events that may result in the Information being in error.
The Information is being disclosed only because it was made available by the Company to selected bidders, including the Acquirer and PAC. The disclosure of the Information shall not be deemed to be any acknowledgement or admission by the Company as to the materiality or relevance of any of this Information.
Please acknowledge receipt of the same.
Thanking you
Yours faithfully
For Satyam Computer Services Limited

ended June 30, 2000 until the quarter ended September 30, 2008 should no longer be relied upon and, therefore, there are no audit reports for Company from the quarter ended June 30, 2000 onwards. Accordingly, the Information is not reliable.
Further, the Information has not been audited, reviewed or examined by an independent auditor or otherwise verified. There can be no assurance that any such Information is accurate, and the actual (final and/or audited) results may be materially higher or lower than projected.

15.   Acquisition Related Disputes
Caterpillar Inc
On April 21, 2008, Satyam announced its intention to acquire the Market Research and Customer Analytics (“MR&CA”) business unit from Caterpillar Inc., a United States based company (“CAT”), including the related intellectual property, which consists of software, processes and know-how (“IP”). The acquisition was for total consideration of US$60.0 million, comprising an initial payment of US$10 million, which Satyam paid to CAT on August 6, 2008, and a US$50 million promissory note issued by Satyam in favour of CAT on August 6, 2008 (the “Promissory Note”). The transaction was consummated on August 6, 2008. As of November 14, 2008, Satyam had paid total consideration of US$20 million to CAT, consisting of its initial payment of US$10 million and payments made under the Promissory Note totaling US$10 million.
Following the January 7, 2009 resignation letter of Mr. B. Ramalinga Raju, Satyam’s former Chairman (the “Resignation Letter”), on January 15, 2009 and January 22, 2009, CAT served legal notice on Satyam notifying the company of the termination of its asset purchase agreement and transition services agreement with CAT, each dated April 21, 2008, and demanding the immediate payment of the unpaid principal balance of US$40 million due under the Promissory Note. In March 2009, the parties began negotiating to amicably resolve the outstanding issues and the settlement negotiations are at an advanced stage.
Bridge Strategy Group
On January 21, 2008, Satyam announced its intention to acquire 100% of the shares of Bridge Strategy Group LLC (“Bridge”), a Chicago based strategy and general management consulting firm, for total consideration of US$35.0 million to be paid over 2 1/2 years, comprising initial consideration, deferred non-contingent consideration and contingent consideration. The transaction was consummated on April 4, 2008. An initial payment of US$19 million was made by Satyam to the sellers on April 4, 2008. Under the terms of the share purchase agreement, the balance payments are to be paid in two stages: US$8 million in August 2009 as guaranteed payment and US$8 million in October 2010 as key executive retention payment. In July 2008, the key employees of Bridge were issued RSUs worth US$6 million.
In response to the Resignation Letter, on February 12, 2009, the sellers, who were all key executives of Bridge, served notice on Satyam claiming that they had a “Good Reason” under the share purchase agreement to leave Bridge and still retain all the rights to receive the full balance of the consideration (i.e., US$16 million). Subsequent to the Resignation Letter, the key executives have also claimed cash in lieu of their RSUs worth US$6 million.
Currently negotiations are underway to address the issues raised in the sellers’ notice and to persuade the sellers to stay with Bridge for the full retention period.
S&V Management Consultants
On April 21, 2008, Satyam announced its intention to acquire S&V Management Consultants (“S&V”), a Belgium based supply chain management consulting firm for total cash consideration of 22.5 million comprising up-front, deferred guaranteed and deferred retention payments. The transaction was consummated on December 11, 2008. An initial payment of 11.7 million was made by Satyam on December 11, 2008 and a subsequent payment of 3 million was made by Satyam on April 30, 2009. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the balance payments are to be paid in two stages: 4 million in Apr 2010 and 4 million in Apr 2011.
In response to the Resignation Letter, on February 9, 2009, the sellers served notices on Satyam asking for guarantees for all future payments owed under the acquisition agreement (i.e., 11 million at that time). The sellers were also asking Satyam to pay approximately 1 million in past due payments, which were supposed to be met from S&V’s own business cash flows and reserves, but were delayed due to a delay in the collection of S&V’s receivables. Satyam is in the process of paying the 1 million in past due payments.
Venture Global
Satyam Computer Services entered into a joint venture agreement with Venture Global Engineering LLC (“VGE”) to form Satyam Venture Engineering Services Pvt. Ltd (“SVES”) in India. As a result of VGE’s breach of the agreement between the parties, Satyam Computer Services filed a request for arbitration, naming VGE as respondent, with the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”), seeking, among other things, to purchase VGE’s 50% interest in SVES at the agreed upon book value price of the shares. The LCIA Arbitrator issued an Award on April 3, 2006 in favour of Satyam Computer Services which it successfully enforced in the United States District Court in Michigan. VGE went in Appeal against this Order by the District Court in Michigan. During the enforcement proceedings in the US, VGE filed a petition challenging the Award before the District Court, Secunderabad and made an appeal to the High Court of Andhra Pradesh, both of which were rejected. Subsequently, in a special leave petition filed by VGE, the Supreme Court of India set aside the orders of the District Court and the High Court and granted an interim stay of the share transfer portion of the Award. The matter has been remanded back to the District Court, Secunderabad for trial on merits. Meanwhile, on 9th April 2009, the United States Sixth Circuit Court of Appeal affirmed the Judgement and Order passed by the District Court in Michigan recognising and enforcing the Award and dismissed VGE’s plea to vacate the District Court’s order holding VGE in civil contempt. Secunderabad. Satyam believes that this will not have an adverse effect on results of operations, financial position and cash flows.


 

16.   Other Major Disputes
U.S. Class Action Law Suits
Following the Resignation Letter, a number of persons claiming to have purchased the Company’s securities in the previous five years filed class action lawsuits against the Company and others, including the Company’s former directors, certain former officers and, in some cases, Price Waterhouse, the Company’s former statutory auditors, in United States courts alleging violations of the antifraud provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Class Actions”). The Class Actions have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”), and are awaiting appointment of a lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff’s counsel, and then the filing of a consolidated amended complaint. The Court has convened a conference on May 7, 2009, to consider applications for lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff’s counsel. The consolidated amended complaint will likely be filed 45 days after appointment of the lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff’s counsel. The Company has not yet been required to reply to the complaints, but anticipates that, in accordance with U.S. procedures, it will vigorously defend itself.
Upaid Litigation
Upaid Systems Limited (“Upaid”) initially commenced proceedings against the Company in 2007 alleging forgery of the documents necessary for transfer of proper title to its patent under an assignment agreement entered into in 1998 pursuant to which Satyam Enterprise (a subsidiary of the Company) assigned and transferred its rights, title and interests in certain computer software to Upaid. The Company unsuccessfully challenged the jurisdiction of US courts in courts in London. Upaid amended its complaint thrice thereafter, the last being on October 16, 2008. The plaintiff has claimed an award of actual damages exceeding US$1 billion for fraud and forgery in addition to other punitive damages, fees and costs. The matter is scheduled for trial in the first week of June 2009 in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall County. The Company is defending this lawsuit.


 

17.   Unacknowledged Claim for Rs. 1230 Crores
The Company has received letters from 37 companies requesting for confirmation of sums allegedly owed by Satyam to them. The aggregate of sums claimed to be owed is Rs. 1230 Crores. The Company has not acknowledged these claims till date. The matter is under investigation by various authorities.
18.   Directors & Officers Insurance
A Directors & Officers Liability Policy (“D&O Policy”) has been purchased by the Company to protect its directors and officers against legal costs incurred by them in defending allegations or suits brought against them for wrongful acts and any awards granted against them, including out of court settlements. The D&O Policy also protects the Company if it is exposed to a “Securities Claim” as defined under the D&O Policy. The primary policy has been issued by TATA AIG General Insurance Co. Ltd (“Tata AIG”), along with The New India Assurance Company Ltd and ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company Ltd, forming multiple layers of coverage in excess of the primary policy.
The Company has made claim notifications to TATA AIG regarding receipt of notices from several regulatory authorities and the Class Actions. The Company has also enclosed copies of letters from directors and officers of Satyam giving notice of the likelihood of potential claims against them and requesting coverage under the D&O Policy.
TATA AIG, being the insurer for the primary layer and the excess layers, while expressly reserving its rights under the D&O Policy, has taken a preliminary view and disputed the claim under the D&O Policy, subject to the Company providing additional documentation and information. The Company has replied by way of a letter wherein it has expressly reserved its rights with respect to the D&O Policy and disagreed with a number of statements and positions taken by TATA AIG. It has agreed to provide TATA AIG with all additional information that is required and the same is being prepared.
Certain independent directors of the Company have demanded indemnification for any loss and advancement of fees and expenses associated with cases and other proceedings and investigations that may be instituted against them on the basis of the indemnification agreements entered into by them with the Company. The Company has denied a request for advancement of legal costs as it is prohibited by virtue of Section 201 of the Companies Act, 1956 from indemnifying the former directors until they are adjudged not guilty in any proceedings. A clarification has been issued by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs of India stating that the Company is prohibited from advancing defence costs to its directors and officers who are named in any litigation, regulatory investigation or governmental proceeding in relation to the Company until they are acquitted or proved innocent.
